Un-History Ep 1 | Thomas Jefferson: The 600-Person Plot Hole

from Un-history · host Koji Steven Sakai

Koji Steven Sakai drags Thomas Jefferson into a South Pasadena garage for a long-overdue audit. Using the “Dead Air” signal, Koji cross-examines the Founding Father on the massive plot holes in his legacy—from his 600-person forced labor camp to the massive debts that kept his own children in the service entrance. It’s a deep dive into the man who wrote the script for freedom but couldn't afford to live it.The Audit Trail (References)Slavery & Labor:The Nailery: Monticello's "Nail Boys"Sally Hemings: Life at Monticello | PBS NewsHour1800 Election: The Three-Fifths ClauseFinancials & Gadgets:Jefferson Bible: The "Razor and Glue" GospelsThe Mammoth Cheese: 1,200lbs of SymbolismThe Polygraph: The 18th Century CC MachineWeather Logs: 50 Years of Daily DataSound CreditsPixabay: freesound_community, Vicki Hamilton, Hasin AmandaFreesound.org: Gravel Footsteps by Sassaby (CC0)

The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene (Full Audiobook) Robert Greene Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature.In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T.
